HC Deb 15 October 1908 vol 194 cc478-9
MR. CARR-GOMM (Southwark, Rotherhithe)

I beg to ask the. Secretary of State for the Home Department if his attention has been drawn to the stage representation of a horse falling from a precipice which is being shown at Drury Lane theatre; and whether the Home Office inspector has satisfied himself that there is no ill-treatment of this horse in the performance.

MR. HERBERT SAMUEL

Theatres are not under Home Office inspection, but my right hon. friend has made inquiry into this matter, and he learns that the measures taken are such that there is no ill-treatment of the horse.
